MrMungo Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 Ritchie Hawkins was asked via Twitter to confirm the conversion multiplier.... 1.3 So Zach W should be 4.07 and Morley 4.17 (assuming 2.5% Brit reductions) The multiplier should only come into effect if the rider(s) have no relevant average, I would have thought. (Shanes, for example) Morley and Waj both have established second division averages, so assume they would return to the league on them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both have established/relevant averages from 2017 which should be used. 2016 averages are completely irrelevant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandelion Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 (edited) What multiply are people using?? It's 1.3 That's what I used The only thing I assume is that they think Zach Wajtknecht comes in on a 2.00, or the 2.53 he got for Somerset... And they or us have messed up the totals Edited December 8, 2017 by Dandelion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 You have forgotten the “new members only” 2.5% discount . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Cook was on a local radio station yesterday and said he was really happy to get Zach on such a low average among other things, no mention of what his average was but from that comment I would guess its lower than what has been stated on here.

It should be PL to CL converted and possibly minus the 2.5%, not 100% sure of that rule personally... That's how they worked out Shane's average, or is it make the rules up as you go?

Baldyman Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Make the rules up as you go....always has been and always will be. Just some seem to get away with it better than others. Although I'm sure they all try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine the answer is along the lines of making best use of a ruling/regulation already in existence and therefore available to all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should think Clegg still qualifies for a 2.5 reduction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 I should think Clegg still qualifies for a 2.5 reduction Clegg has done 3 seasons now 2015,16 and 17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 No..Clegg has been out the national league more than 3 seasons hasn't he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 If Lakeside promotion were 100% certain on the averages, common sense would say, lets release a press statement confirming the averages and where its come from. Radio silence however just causes doubt and confusion, and also scepticism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyE Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 The general consensus on here is that the team is considerably over the 42.50 limit. It is, therefore pointless to go on about 2.5% reductions because, in real terms they amount to very little (0.1 on a average of 4.00 - to achieve even a 0.50 reduction, you would need to apply it to combined averages totalling 20). Something else is definitely in play here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio silence however just causes doubt and confusion, and also scepticism. Why would they do that? Maybe Cook isnt aware of the few people on this forum who think the team is over. If it is over Iam sure the powers that be would have told them by now the team doesnt fit. Edited December 9, 2017 by liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 If they've got nothing to hide, shut the fans up questioning it, and prove it.... The powers that be that havent a clue what's going on it seems? Who change the rules depending who's asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Jon Cook does not need to justify to opposition fans that his team is legal, if you have a problem, then ask your own promotion about it, then buy some wood, build a bridge, and get over it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team has been announced and if its over the limit then every other promotion can now go and complain about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
